Description

Title:

Gleason's Horse Book. Treating of The Habits and Diseases of the Horse and Other Animals

Author:

Gleason, Oscar R.

Place Published:

Buffalo

Publisher:

Courier Company, Printers

Date Published:

1885

Description:

64 pp. Black & white lithographed illustrations. 9x6¼, lithographed pictorial wrappers. First Edition.

A highly informative pamphlet, offering instruction in breaking colts, shoeing, horse diseases, etc., and ten pages about training and doctoring one's dogs. This precedes the larger version of Gleason's Horse Book issued in 1892, and it is as scarce as that book is common: OCLC locates no copies of this edition.

Condition:

A little chipping to the wrappers and spine; pencil scribbles on title-page, pencil inscription on its verso; else very good.
